PerlBroker has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

How can it be that I cannot any more see the perl errors, but I see just: Compilation error at /usr/share/perl/5.14/utf8_heavy.pl line 447. Even slight error in my file, causes this error. It can be missing curly bracket or not declared string or something. This might be error in general in Perl to be solved. But I cannot know which line number I have to search for. It becomes impossible working with perl.

    How can it be that I cannot any more see the perl errors,

    Impossible to say, maybe you corrupted your perl install, maybe anything at all

    This might be error in general in Perl to be solved.

    Not likely

    Is the error not on line 447?!

    Do you use strict and use warnings?

    But I cannot know which line number I have to search for.

    But it tells you line 447. What's the problem?
